95 INF-41: Food Stamps: Clarification of Treatment of Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC) as a Resource and Introduction of EITC Desk Chart
|
This is to provide clarification on when to apply the food stamp resource exclusion for the earned income tax credit (EITC). The Mickey Leland Hunger Relief Act provides that any household member's EITC is excluded as a resource for a period of 12 months from the date of receipt if participating in the food stamp program at the time of receipt. This INF introduces a quick reference EITC Desk Chart to assist eligibility staff and shares a couple of questions/answers received from the USDA on EITC.
